"Your smile your beautiful smile that only makes my day better just by just looking at it," he said and it almost sounded like he was smiling himself. stop now I don't want to hear it anymore. "Talk to me," he said, gently touching my hand that was still on the handle but I froze once more due to his touch and he removed his grip. "Please do not touch me," I said and my voice sounded faint. "Sorry, I didn't mean to do that," he said back. His touch felt familiar but still foreign to me. "Sorry for all that, I just missed you," he said once more and I only feel the tears squeezing up out of the corner of my eye. "Can't you just stop, I would not have come here if I knew you would be my teacher, I would never have moved to this city if I knew you lived here" I said. "I did not know you were going to be my student either, I saw the name well, but I did not want to think too much about it, I did not believe it was you," He said quickly. "Can't you just pretend we don't know each other?" I said. "Aria you know I can't do that, what we had can't just lie behind it, we need to talk, I want to hear how it has gone with you," he said and I only hear it was hard for him like it was for me. "I do not want to talk to you, I have done my best to contact you since you left me all alone and you did not respond once as if you had just disappeared," I said and heard silence. "I finally found a place where no one knows me and no one questions why a 19-year-old does not have a real job as she should or why she does not go to college," I said again and clenched my fist. "So please do not tell me we need to talk because there is nothing to talk about, you do not know me and I do not know you," I said and felt I sniffed quietly. "Thank you so much for teaching Mr. Collin," I said, opening the final door and walking out of this school as fast as I could. I quickly wiped my eyes and took the bus home before it got too late.
